Dieter Kiessling

In his closed-circuit installations, photographs, and sculptures, Kiessling poses questions about the transitory of everyday experience and the media and refers in his videos frequently to the process of production. In Paternoster, the elevator journey becomes a tracking shot, while a fixed camera records the loop motion of the cabins from the outside. The split screen documents the movement laconically in real time, without any media reflexive showdown.
